Dr. Mustafa Khattab Is there not a period of time when each human is nothing yet worth mentioning?¹

Dr. Mustafa Khattab ˹For˺ indeed, We ˹alone˺ created humans from a drop of mixed fluids,¹ ˹in order˺ to test them, so We made them hear and see.

Dr. Mustafa Khattab We already showed them the Way, whether they ˹choose to˺ be grateful or ungrateful.

Dr. Mustafa Khattab Indeed, We have prepared for the disbelievers chains, shackles, and a blazing Fire.

Dr. Mustafa Khattab Indeed, the virtuous will have a drink ˹of pure wine˺—flavoured with camphor—

Dr. Mustafa Khattab ˹from˺ a spring where Allah’s servants will drink, flowing at their will.

Dr. Mustafa Khattab They ˹are those who˺ fulfil ˹their˺ vows and fear a Day of sweeping horror,

Dr. Mustafa Khattab and give food—despite their desire for it—to the poor, the orphan, and the captive,

Dr. Mustafa Khattab ˹saying to themselves,˺ “We feed you only for the sake of Allah, seeking neither reward nor thanks from you.

Dr. Mustafa Khattab We fear from our Lord a horribly distressful Day.”
